CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION

This application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 15/177,294, filed Jun. 8, 2016, which claims priority to and the benefit of Korean Patent Application No. 10-2015-0153260, filed Nov. 2, 2015, the entire content of both of which is incorporated herein by reference.

BACKGROUND 1. Field

One or more aspects of embodiments of the present disclosure relate to an organic light-emitting device and a method of manufacturing the same.

2. Description of the Related Art

Organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs) are self-emission devices that have wide viewing angles, high contrast ratios, and short response times. In addition, the OLEDs exhibit high luminance, low driving voltage, and fast response speed characteristics, and can produce full-color images.

An OLED may include a first electrode disposed (e.g., positioned) on a substrate, and a hole transport region, an emission layer, an electron transport region, and a second electrode, which are sequentially disposed on the first electrode. Holes provided from the first electrode, for example, may move toward the emission layer through the hole transport region, and electrons provided from the second electrode, for example, may move toward the emission layer through the electron transport region. Carriers, such as holes and electrons, may then recombine in the emission layer to produce excitons. These excitons change from an excited state to a ground state to thereby generate light.

Hereinafter, an organic light-emitting device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure will be described with reference to the drawing.

The drawing is a schematic cross-sectional view of an organic light-emitting device (OLED) 10 according to an embodiment.

The OLED 10 in the drawing may include a first electrode 110, a hole transport region 130, an emission layer 150, an electron transport region 170, and a second electrode 190, which are sequentially layered in the stated order. The electron transport region 170 may include an electron auxiliary layer. The electron auxiliary layer may directly contact the emission layer 150.

Referring to the drawing, a substrate may be additionally disposed (e.g., positioned) under the first electrode 110 or over the second electrode 190. The substrate may be a glass substrate and/or transparent plastic substrate, each with excellent mechanical strength, thermal stability, transparency, surface smoothness, ease of handling, and/or water resistance.

The first electrode 110 may be formed by depositing or sputtering a material for forming the first electrode 110 over the substrate. When the first electrode 110 is an anode, the material for forming the first electrode 110 may be selected from materials with a high work function, so as to facilitate hole injection. The first electrode 110 may be a reflective electrode, a semi-transmissive electrode, or a transmissive electrode. The material for forming the first electrode 110 may be a transparent and highly conductive material, and non-limiting examples of the material include indium tin oxide (ITO), indium zinc oxide (IZO), tin oxide (SnO₂), and zinc oxide (ZnO). When the first electrode 110 is a semi-transmissive electrode or a reflective electrode, as a material for forming the first electrode 110, at least one selected from magnesium (Mg), aluminum (Al), aluminum-lithium (Al—Li), calcium (Ca), magnesium-indium (Mg—In), and magnesium-silver (Mg—Ag) may be used.

The first electrode 110 may have a single-layer structure, or a multi-layer structure including a plurality of layers. In some embodiments, the first electrode 110 may have a triple-layer structure of ITO/Ag/ITO, but embodiments are not limited thereto.

Holes injected from the first electrode 110 may be transported to the emission layer 150 through the hole transport region 130.

The hole transport region 130 may have a single-layer structure, or a multi-layer structure including two or more layers. The hole transport region 130 may include a single material or two or more different materials.

For example, the hole transport region 130 may have a structure of hole injection layer/hole transport layer, a structure of hole injection layer/hole transport layer/electron blocking layer, a structure of hole injection layer/hole transport layer/buffer layer/electron blocking layer, a structure of hole injection layer/electron blocking layer, a structure of hole injection layer/buffer layer/electron blocking layer, a structure of hole transport layer/electron blocking layer, and a structure of hole transport layer/buffer layer/electron blocking layer, wherein the layers of each structure are sequentially stacked from the first electrode 110 in this stated order, but embodiments are not limited thereto. In some embodiments, the hole transport region 130 may include a hole injection layer only or a hole transport layer only.

The hole transport region 130 may include at least one copolymer selected from a first copolymer of a first compound and a second compound and a second copolymer of a third compound and a fourth compound. The first compound, the second compound, the third compound, the fourth compound, the first copolymer, and the second copolymer may be the same as described herein.

The hole transport region 130 may include, in addition to the first copolymer and the second copolymer, at least one selected from polyaniline/dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid (Pani/DBSA), poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)/poly(4-styrenesulfonate (PEDOT/PSS), polyaniline/camphor sulfonicacid (Pani/CSA), and polyaniline/poly(4-styrenesulfonate) (PANI/PSS).

A thickness of the hole transport region 130 may be in a range of about 100 Angstroms (Å) to about 10,000 Å, for example, about 100 Å to about 1,000 Å. When the hole transport region 130 includes a hole injection layer and a hole transport layer, the thickness of the hole injection layer may be in a range of about 100 Å to about 10,000 Å, and in some embodiments, about 100 Å to about 1,000 Å; a thickness of the hole transport layer may be in a range of about 50 Å to about 2,000 Å, and in some embodiments, about 100 Å to about 1,500 Å. When the thicknesses of the hole transport region 130, the hole injection layer, and the hole transport layer are within any of these ranges, excellent (or suitable) hole transport characteristics may be obtained without a substantial increase in driving voltage.

The hole transport region 130 may further include, in addition to the hole injection layer and the hole transport layer, at least one selected from a buffer layer and an electron blocking layer. Since the buffer layer may compensate for an optical resonance distance according to a wavelength of light emitted from the emission layer, the light-emission efficiency of the resulting organic light-emitting device may be improved. Any of the materials included in the hole transport region may be used as a material included in the buffer layer. In some embodiments, the electron blocking layer may function to prevent or reduce the injection of electrons from the electron transport region 170.

According to an embodiment, the hole transport region 130 may include the hole injection layer and the hole transport layer, wherein the hole injection layer may include at least one selected from polyaniline/dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid (Pani/DBSA), poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)/poly(4-styrenesulfonate (PEDOT/PSS), polyaniline/camphor sulfonicacid (Pani/CSA), and polyaniline/poly(4-styrenesulfonate) (PANI/PSS); and the hole transport layer may include at least one selected from the first copolymer and the second copolymer, but embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto.

When the hole transport region 130 includes the hole transport layer, the hole transport layer may directly contact the emission layer 150, but embodiments are not limited thereto.

The emission layer 150 may be formed over (e.g., on) the hole transport region 130.

When the organic light-emitting device 10 is a full color organic light-emitting device, the emission layer may be patterned into a red emission layer, a green emission layer, and/or a blue emission layer, according to a sub-pixel. In some embodiments, the emission layer may have a stacked structure of a red emission layer, a green emission layer, and a blue emission layer, or may include a red-light emission material, a green-light emission material, and a blue-light emission material, which are mixed with each other in a single layer, to emit white light.

According to an embodiment, an emission material included in the emission layer 150 may be a polymer emission material or a low-molecular-weight emission material.

The emission layer 150 may include a host and a dopant.

The host may include, for example, TPBi, TBADN, ADN (herein also referred to as “DNA”), CBP, CDBP, TCP, poly(N-vinyl carbazole (PVK):2-4-biphenyl)-5-(4-tert-butylphenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole (PBD), and at least one selected from Compounds 101 to 106:
